Talk to me

You don't have to book anything. People message me and don't book, all the time, and I answer.

WhatsApp

The fastest way, and the one most people use. I answer WhatsApp myself. Usually within a few hours, always within a day, and it's me typing.

Message me

Email

If you'd rather write something longer.

The free 15 minutes

Video or voice, camera off is fine, nothing to buy at the end of it.

Pick a time

I'm in Bali, which is UTC+8. I keep early-morning and evening slots so Europe and the US aren't stuck calling me at four in the morning.

One thing to be clear about

WhatsApp is one person with a phone, not a monitored crisis line. I sleep, and sometimes I'm with my family. If it's urgent, use the numbers here first, and message me after.

This site is not emergency care. If you or somebody else is in danger, call your local emergency number now.
